The guard who sent the order went, leaving a military order on the table.
He Wu beamed his eyes, looked at the military order, and pinched his chin. In his opinion, is this a military order?
No, this is an instrument to make a fortune.
Since Su Lu took office, he has suppressed the bandits twice, and how much money he has paid.
Fifteen thousand taels in silver, ten million in money!
This is more money than in the past few decades.
To suppress the bandits, we must continue to suppress the bandits.
It's a pity that Erlong Mountain is located in Beizheng, so it's hard for our family to go and fight the bandits personally.
"I said, Brother Su, you see that we cross the border and go to Erlong Mountain to suppress bandits, Xuanfu can't blame us, right?"
He Wu asked with a smile, his face full of expectation.
Su Lu stood up, took the military order, and walked outside the door.
He Wu grabbed Su Lu with a nervous tone: "Brother Su, what do you think, how about we go to Erlong Mountain to suppress bandits?"
"I don't have enough soldiers. I'll go to the princess to see if Jiedu Mansion can give me even a few soldiers. How can a battalion with two hundred people suppress bandits? A guard battalion is about the same."
He Wu also nodded repeatedly:
"One Wei battalion has four to six battalions, with thousands of troops, so the scope of the bandits is widened. It is necessary to add troops. When Luo Jian's grandson was in Nanguan camp, he could control thousands of troops. We can too."
The two arrived at the county lieutenant's mansion, and when they saw Li Qing, the county magistrate Tang was also there.
The county magistrate Tang said with a smile: "My lord, there are only more than 200 guards in our county. This Xuanfu military order cannot be implemented. Let Su Duwei cooperate with the guards. Are you not participating?"
Li Qing shook his head: "Major Tang, our army is at war with Tulle, and the attitudes of the two countries in the South are unclear. If this continues, I believe the South will rise again, and County Majesty Tang doesn't want to see that."
He Wu said flatly: "My lord is right. I will do my part for the prosperity of the Han Dynasty."
"I have already discussed with Lieutenant Su Lu, please allow your permission, and ask Jiedu Mansion to spread out a few more battalions. We are willing to go to the battlefield and fight the Tule people."
Li Qing looked at He Wu when he heard the words, a look of appreciation flashed in his eyes, but when he looked at Su Lu again, he was very upset.
Look at He Wu, don't shrink at the critical moment, Su Lu, if you have half of you, it's not bad.
"Okay, I will report this matter to Jiedu Mansion, but Junbing. It is probably impossible."
He Wu's face turned dark when he heard this, and it was impossible to distribute the troops, so what should I do?
Su Lu Xindao, I didn't expect your Jiedu Mansion either. Now the war ahead is raging, Suozibaoyangping Pingpao has suffered a series of defeats. Li Canjun, who only left yesterday, said that Jiedu Mansion is almost unable to make up the frontline food. The team is basically gone forever.
It now appears that the food transport team was not only collected by Beizheng Daying, but also part of it was robbed by bandits in Erlong Mountain.
"General, the Xuan Mansion can't come out evenly, the task of eliminating bandits in the territory is not easy to complete, Jiufeng Mountain, Tianmen Mountain, there are large groups of bandits entrenched, with our current strength, it is impossible to win."
Su Lu took out the map and pointed to the bandit strongholds in Beiyang.
I have to say that this map is really difficult to use, only a place name is marked, the distance is not said, and the distance between each place is completely wrong.
Jiufeng Mountain is close to Eagle Mountain, but it is 50 kilometers away from Tianmen Mountain. From the picture, the three mountains are almost forming one mountain.
Li Qing frowned as he looked at the map, and his tone was a bit hesitant.
"Yes, the three mountains are so close, and they can support each other. This is a big challenge for our guards to win these two bands."
"Major Tang, what can you do about it?"
Li Qing turned to Tang County magistrate, where the old **** was aside.
The county magistrate Tang was dumbfounded, people were sitting beside him, and the pot came from the sky.
If she says there is no way, the princess gets angry and pinches the pot that can't eliminate the bandits on her head, it will be miserable.
Turning his gaze to Su Lu as if for help, the beard of County magistrate Tang began to tremble.
"Su Duwei, military is not something I understand, so I won't laugh and be generous, Su Duwei, I think you have a good idea, I think you have a lot of money in your chest."
All of a sudden, the eyes of several people converged on Su Lu again.
Su Lu shook his head: "If there is a way, what can I do. I have neither the right to recruit troops nor a temporary secondment. If there is a way, I can't do anything."
Li Qing's eyes lit up, and she promised:
"If you can collect all the soldiers by yourself, I will write a letter to Jiedu Mansion and give these soldiers legal status, but you have to deal with the equipment and rations yourself."
"What about the military pay?"
Su Lu was a little annoyed, and the equipment and rations were not solved. Xuanfu was already in such a difficult situation.
Li Qing picked up a battle report and handed it to Su Lu.
Su Lu glanced around, and was immediately stunned.
This is the battle report that can only be seen by the generals at the first level. The narrative of the battle situation is much more detailed. Not only the battles that have occurred everywhere, including the intelligence information obtained before the battle, but also the details, all are listed.
There was war in various places in the northern border of Xuanfu. Beizheng Daying was precarious, Suozibaoyang was flat, and Tunpu and Tutai were mostly fallen. There were few remaining Tunpu, and the defense line north of Beizheng was basically broken.
To the south of Beizheng, beacon smoke was everywhere, and the food supply roads for Beizheng Daying were cut off. Grain, soldiers, and clothing suffered serious losses everywhere. The Jiedu Mansion was unable to meet the normal supply of the front line.
Su Lu understood Li Qing's meaning and wanted to expand his army. At this point of view, the Jiedu Mansion would certainly not object, but would not approve it either. The Jiedu Mansion could not supply soldiers, weapons, clothing, and even food and grass.
He Wu was anxious: "My lord, this is not okay. There are about a thousand people in a guard. We can't afford these weapons and armors."
Li Qing glanced at Tang County magistrate.
The county magistrate Tang immediately yelled:
"My pity, my lord, all the Yiying grain and grass in this county have supported Beizheng Daying. When Nanguan Daying was transferred away, the arrows and cotton clothes accumulated in the big storey over the years were not at all left. Ah, if the Thule people come to attack, I don't know how to defend against the enemy."
Su Lu was worried, he had to increase his troops if he wanted to get stuck, but looking at the situation now, it's very difficult.
Two times to suppress bandits, the patrol camp has accumulated a lot of food and grass, and there are tens of thousands of liang of silver and copper, but if you want to support the cost of one thousand people, this is really not enough.
A guard came in stride, and saw Su Lu and Li Qing, and told them.
"My lord, there is a congestion at the gate of Beicheng. The refugees from Suozibao in Beiyang have arrived. The commander of the Soviet brigade guarding the city did not dare to let anyone in, and ordered someone to ask the adults."
"The refugees must not enter the city."
The county magistrate Tang stood up and said, his face was full of anxiety, and he looked at Li Qing.
Li Qing looked at Tang county magistrate embarrassedly: "If these refugees go south or become bandits, our sins will be serious if we don't enter the city."
The county magistrate of Tang gritted his teeth: "The county government can take out part of the grain porridge. I call on the big households in this county to donate more money to ensure that the refugees can eat."
"As for the congee, I hope that Su Duwei will send a guard to suppress it, so as to avoid trouble."
The county magistrate Tang turned to look at Su Lu and said.
Su Lu's heart moved, the county government office porridge, he can take advantage of the opportunity to select a group of young and strong, and with a little training, they will be qualified soldiers.
"Well, I will send someone to maintain, um, the princess, the vacancies of the guards who died in the battle of the A and B brigade, I will directly select from these refugees."
